I have an abcess in my thigh. I had an I and D on this Monday. my leg is still red and very tender and now it feels like there is still a hard place around where they cut. I was told the culture came back as MRSA. I am taking Zyvox. do you think I need to go back in or could I wait and see if the medicine will help?
